After my previous problem, TortoiseSVN Can't Connect was resolved, I ran into a new problem.
On the linux server hosting my svn repository, in the repository's directory, there is a conf/svnserve.conf file. In this file, I have the option:
anon-access = none | read | write
Initially, this line was commented out and the default value must have been read.
Of course, I want to set anon-access = none, and I want auth-access = write (which is the default).
But when I set anon-access = none, when I try to browse with TortoiseSVN Repository Browser
using url svn://host:port/repositoryname, I get the error:
Unable to connect to a repository at URL 'svn://host:port/repositoryname' No access allowed to this repository
I'd like to successfully authenticate without ssh if possible, because I gather ssh has more moving parts and might be a little slower.
The server is CloudLinux Server release 5.8
The svn server information follows. I have only tried svn protocol so far.
svn, version 1.6.17 (r1128011) compiled Jul 26 2012, 03:59:19
Copyright (C) 2000-2009 CollabNet. Subversion is open source software, see http://subversion.apache.org/ This product includes software developed by CollabNet (http://www.Collab.Net/).
The following repository access (RA) modules are available:
- ra_neon : Module for accessing a repository via WebDAV protocol using Neon.
- handles 'http' scheme
- ra_svn : Module for accessing a repository using the svn network protocol.
- with Cyrus SASL authentication
- handles 'svn' scheme
- ra_local : Module for accessing a repository on local disk.
- handles 'file' scheme
- ra_serf : Module for accessing a repository via WebDAV protocol using serf.
- handles 'http' scheme
- handles 'https' scheme
I hope this is a good question because this is kind of the "out of the box" behavior connecting to svn with windows, which might be pretty common when someone adds svn to a shared hosting account.
Thank you!
